C-3PO's vac metal look will delay him or something. They'd wait a tad before any female characters. They will put another army builder in, even with the costs too high for anyone to buy multiples, to cover themselves. Plus clone trooper can be repainted/redecoed.

I'd be stunned if Vader doesn't show up in Series 2. Beyond that, some kind of trooper and some kind of hero - probably Han - will certainly be in the mix. I think between the main casts of both trilogies, the troopers and the favorites like bounty hunters, there's a stockpile of these things that will, if sucessful, come slow and steady until the new movie (and beyond I'm sure).

I am shocked about it as well. But we all know Vader will either be the SDCC exclusive or in wave 2. I am hoping for a 3 stage removeable helmet with a Sebastian Shaw Anakin head underneath. I assume Boba Fett would be in series 2. Perhaps Chewabacca? Yeah, I would like a Han Solo (Cantina outfit) version. I don't know if they will go with 4 OT figures though?

So Greedo in Wave 2 must be Hasbro's way of indicating to collectors that it's not going to be all main characters in the 6" line.

I'm still not really interested in collecting the 6" stuff, but more and more I'm thinking it might be fun to buy a few of the cantina-centric ones (assuming of course they make more cantina centric ones - Hammerhead, Ponda, Snaggletooth, etc). ::)

Well, the references picture collage (http://www.entertainmentearth.com/images/sales/0613_hasbroblack/Reveal/xrqv_SW_BS_reveal1.png) they have linked is made up of pics of Greedo's head/mask, hands/gloves, gun belt, blaster, and stills of the actor in the suit.

I'm pretty sure it's Greedo. :P

I'll guess Week 2 (6/25) will be the figure drawing/schematic with the joints mapped out; week 3 (7/2) will be the wax prototype, and week 4 (7/11) will probably be the final painted hard copy; and then we'll see him "in person" at SDCC.

Although I don't want this "replacing" the 3 3/4" collector figures, after seeing this wave I'm getting pretty excited for this line. I know the collector reaction has been kind of hit and miss, but the quality so far looks pretty good and I like the character selection. It is kind of fun looking forward to when different "big guns" will be released, kind of like the POTF2 days. This wave in particular looks great I think, and with news of a Biker Scout with Speederbike next year, that's pretty cool too. I'm probably all in with the OT offerings, still on the fence with the prequel stuff. Now I just need to figure out where I'll put them :).

Wow, now Han is how figures SHOULD be done for $20... 3 basically movie-accurate ways to display him. For the $10 price, a new Han in 3.75" should be exactly like this save for the articulation style and count.

You get Escape the Death Star look, the Millenium Falcon driving gloves look, and the regular old Han is a badass look. All with ONE figure. If the Sandtrooper had that kind of versatility, I might've bought him yesterday or today. For the price, this is simply what they should be delivering to you.

And again, I'd love to see this 6" Han effort put into main characters in the 3.75" line. It'd get me to rebuy just about every main character and probably in multiples too.

Love the extra hands... Very sideshow-esque. Han steals the show at this point, to me.

Leia... I know guys were excited, but I think at this scale the joints look horrid. It's too big for that much articulation to not stand out on an almost nude figure. :-\ I'm sad to say I'm a little disappointed in how she turned out.

Man, can't wait for that Han. Like others have said, the standout so far, most definitely. On Jesse's comment, I couldn't agree more. It would be nice to see them really go all out, like this Han, on the 3 3/4" figures. Granted, it wouldn't necessarily work for every figures (Senators, etc.), but for the big guns, troops, and bounty hunters, it would be pretty cool. Sure, charge $10-12 for them then, all tricked out like this, and maybe only put out 20-25 per year. I'd be down.

When I said that about 3.75", I meant ONLY main characters... No other figure should get that treatment, but mains (Han, Lando, Luke, Chewie, Leia, OWK, Anakin, Padme, Vader, R2, 3PO) are all I'm talking about... Secondary guys, not so much unless it's something minor like on a Clone Commander like Fordo getting the works. I still bought two... I just like the package deal.

According the internet she is 5'1" and he is 6'1"...she is wearing sandles and he is wearing boots. Just asthetically and after the R2 debacle of Wave 1 it doesn't look good but according to my math it is accurate

I received a set of these from BBTS, but haven't had a chance to open them yet. They all look pretty nice overall though, with Leia probably being the weakest of the bunch. The Han looks great, and with all the accessories/extra hands seems the most worthy of the higher pricepoint. I really like these and can't wait to get them open, but still feel that $15-17 would be a better price. I am enjoying the OT-heaviness of these so far though, something we hadn't really seen for awhile in the basic lineup.

I was just able to find a replacement Leia at a local Target today who has really well-done eyes, what a relief. It looks like if they go just a hair off center then it comes out atrocious. I am happy to have found a pair spot-on. Still not my favorite figure but I look forward to busting her out tonight. (I rephrased that like 5 times and none of them sounded good)

Still on the hunt for a replacement Greedo though, as I have noticed a small splotch on the left eye of the one I got. The other I saw Friday was even worse.

The only 2 I saw at my stop today were Leia and Han. 2/3 other Targets I checked had no sign of the wave, but at 1 per case I could have easily just missed them outright.

Saw a set of Wave 2 at our local Target today as well, so they are filtering out there. Hopefully availability won't become an issue with this line as it has with the 3 3/4" stuff over the past few years.

They definitely flew off the shelves right away here. I consider myself lucky to have found them the day theywere put out. I'm curious when these will start showing up at TRU and less traveled places like Barnes and Noble. (I have seen all of Wave 1 there)

Picked up a wave 2 Slave Leia last night. And she definitely caught the attention of the cashier when I was checking out! All of a sudden she wanted to get into a conversation about Star Wars with me, and talking about the new movie, etc...

So far I've seen parts of this wave at both K-Mart and Target. The nice thing (in my area, at least) is that the Wave 1 leftovers haven't kept Wave 2 from hitting. The four different stores I've seen new figures at each had several Lukes and R2s already on warming the shelves. I picked up Han and Boba, and I have a Greedo on the way from HTS. The Leias I have seen have all been googly eyed, so I've refrained from buying.

I saw remnants of this wave at three different Targets today, Boba was missing at every store. Glad I got him when I did. I also finally found a decent Greedo on the third try. (good eyes, no errant paint splotches, etc) Look forward to opening him up finally.

All the Leias I saw had noticeably better paint jobs on the eyes than the first few I recall seeing too.

I was lucky enough to order Boba on Amazon for $22 (instead of the $40 rate like he is now) when they had him back in stock in limited amounts before Black Friday. Just got him in the mail and man oh man is this figure great.

However, I've noticed he's all kinds prone-looking to breakage - my sample has really stiff joints that make a noticeable sound whenever I move his right arm and left ankle. It kinda reminds me of how when I ordered Maul from Amazon and he came with a dislocating left knee. It's funny because there's all sorts of reports of how people have had 6" figure parts break on them (an article comes to mind of when someone's Greedo snapped at the ankle joint). Considering the price on these guys, this shouldn't be happening.

One last thing, and I know it may be too early to tell because we haven't gotten that many figures yet, but does anyone think Hasbro's scaling of these figures is just radically different through each character? For example, the Luke seems tiny to Maul, who's tiny compared to Han. The Sandtrooper towers over them, yet the Boba is WAAAY huger than any of the figures. Idk, it just seems weird that the heights don't seem very consistent.

Just snapped this pic on the way out the door. I'm not really seeing what you mean about Boba Fett. He's shorter as he should be and the scale is right on IMO.

Mark Hamill is quoted at around 5'7"...as stated earlier Ford is a hair over 6' and Fisher is actually around 5'. So he should be at about Han's shoulder side by side...anyone have a comparison shot? I also just read Bulloch is 6', he should be the same height as Han, which based on Matt;s picture he is

Eesh, good luck to anyone that goes that route, those are the two figures I could never buy sight unseen though. I had to go through at least 4-5 Greedos before I found one with unblemished eyes, and nearly as many Leias just to find one with the eyes painted in the right place.

Spotted a fresh batch of Wave 2 at Target yesterday... well one of each. Targets here have been really picky about stocking these. Either that or they sell fast. Either way, I ended up passing, again. Boba and Han are really cool, but I keep asking myself every time I see this line, can I really afford to "start over" with a new scale at this point?

Checked this morning and found The Black Series Boba Fett 6"...1 left in stock. Picked him up along with a $10 Leia and free shipping. Score!

I received my Fett and Slave Leia from Amazon today. I was worried about paint apps given all the comments on here, but they both look fantastic. No screwy eyeballs or smudges. The Fett cost me a few bucks extra @ $23, but he looks crazy cool.

Opened my 6" Slave girl Leia Christmas morning. This is an ok figure. Her eyes make her look like an Egyptian hieroglyphic. She definitely has child-bearing hips. Wow! Could they have made those a little smaller? She is kind of a let down.

I opened mine this weekend as well. I really don't mind the joints or hips and the paint job is great. My biggest gripe is the face sculpt. I haven't watched Jedi in a while, but I thought Leia pretty much looked either helpless and scared or angry and derermined wearing the metal bikini. My figure looks like she's zoning out at a school lecture. Why the abstract, bored sculpt, Hasbro?

I was trying to stay away from this line, but then my brother got me the x-wing luke and Sandtrooper for xmas. Now I'm trying to track down Fett, but haven't had any luck so far. And the pictures of the new stormies make me think I need two.

I gave up, and found a reasonably priced one on ebay. Price was only $2 more than retail (though I did have to pay $8 in shipping). Good enough I guess. Now the fun starts with trying to track down stormtroopers. I want 2, so I can have them flanking Vader when he releases.

I know everyone dumped on them over it, but was he REALLY a bad carry-forward? Boba needs it too, no denying that, but I see scads of Wave 2 at Target, at least 3 of Greedo and Leia at any one I go to. K-Mart has Leia and Greedo too... Han? I haven't seen him in quite some time.

I predicted he was a pretty solid choice (still not denying Fett is too), and I was right. He displays multiple ways, he's an awesome sculpt, he's a major hero that is popular with not just collectors but random fans walking past toys and thinking, "My goodness, that would look cool on my desk!", as well as kids (though $20 figures aren't really for kids I figure).

Not a fan of OWK or Ani getting a repack myself, but Han? I totally think Hasbro made a right call there.

I'm just tired of waiting for these to hit Target and I know I'll never get to TRU early enough to score their random 1 case when it arrives. This seemed like too good a deal to pass up. Now I just need that $%* Stormtrooper!

Finally was able to find Boba at local retail today. After all that wait, figure did not live up to expectations, don't get me wrong, still a very good figure but did not blow me away. He's got some real posability issues with his weapon. When I got the Sandtrooper, it totally blew me away, even though it had some minor paint issues, I was totally stoked to make those quick fixes to let the figure shine. Don't know what I could do to improve Boba. With that said, I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on some Stormtroopers at some point.
